05/06/08 - Intrepid; or terrible trio??

After another lazy morning enjoying the view, with hotdogs and yogurt
for breakfast, we headed back to Haugesund to visit the information
centre and find out what there is to do in this joint (the
Scandinavian Lonely Planet forgets to mention this place). We left
armed with a multitude of information booklets and maps; if it was in
English, we took it!!

The next stop was Haugesund airport to collect Kerryn, for the next
two weeks we are not going to be a dynamic duo, but an intrepid
trio!!! (or should that be terrible trio??).
A supermarket and a traffic jam later we made it to Frette on the
northern side of Lake Stordalsvatnet where we had a walk for tomorrow
all planned. However, on arrival and in awe of the scenery around us
we set off for a walk right there and then...it was only 7pm, and we
should have some daylight til near midnight!
The scenery up close was even better than from the road; a raging
river, mirror flat lakes, cows (and sheep) with bells on, and torrents
of water cascading from towering cliffs!!
